Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / February 2005This afternoon:SKIING
You-all'd-a LOVED it up here today (Sunday): the temperature was just below freezing, lots-a sunshine, good ski hill conditions, and not too many people. The kids are taking lessons, and so Dad decided to join them this afternoon. I looked like a black garbage bag comin' down the hill, on 20 year old skiis, but WTH, it was a good day. Gawd... it's been years since I was in shape enough to go skiin' and it felt good. The kids, of course, wanted to disown me, as I was without doubt the worst dressed dude on the hill... But, again; WTH... it felt good to get the ol' knees pumpin' and all... and BLASTIN' past all those stuck-ups in their high-fashion Gucci ski suits that would rip apart should they ever fall.....;-) <sigh....heh heh heh....> Cheers SP, postin' frum Kebec, Kanada  SignatureNot a real Addy, yet > You-all'd-a LOVED it up here today (Sunday): the temperature was just > below freezing, lots-a sunshine, good ski hill conditions, and not too [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > Cheers > SP, postin' frum Kebec, Kanada Just below freezing? I spent one week near Mt. Tremblant about 15 years ago, cross-country skiing. This was about the beginning of March. I think the warmest day it got up to about 15 degrees F. One day it was about -30 degrees at the BASE of the mountain--and a few folks went downhill skiing. Just wacky, wacky weather.

'specially if China and India decide to go ahead with the proposed fueling of their new booming economies with coal. The rising global temperatures will put an end to low temperatures in March... and the skiing too. Good mountain, though... 'specially on the North side. You can skii on that side well into May in your shorts. Bein' toward the North, it stays froze for quite a long time after the mountain is officially closed for the summer.

I've been wondering if they would still let me on the slopes with my 20+ year old bindings. PS, didn't notice the attachment on the email till much later. Was that the whole Fam Damily, or were there extra's trying to hide?.

Actually, you probably hit the Mujeres at JUST the right time... all the heathen tourists would be gone, leaving regular permanent resident foreigners to show you around, good service where ever you go. (That used to be a TEXACO commercial....). If you took any pictures, pls post a couple. 'Specially of scantily clad local women folk.... ;-) Cheers SP SignatureNot a real Addy, yet >> Darn!!!
